ShinyHunters has been running data extortion ops against the biggest companies in the world since 2020. This time they went after kids. - their track record: Ticketmaster (560 million records), AT&T (73 million accounts), Coinbase, Qantas, Google, Louis Vuitton, Gucci. companies with security teams and the budget to fight back. - their model is "pay or leak." every time. breach the target, demand ransom privately. if ignored, everything goes public on the dark web. - Instructure got hit by ShinyHunters last September. patched and moved on without contacting them. this week's ransom note said: "instead of contacting us, they ignored us and did some security patches." - PowerSchool was breached in December 2024 and paid the ransom. watched a video of the hackers deleting the data. schools were still extorted afterward. - the deadline to pay or have the Canvas data released is set for May 12. every company ShinyHunters hit before had billions in market cap and a crisis team on speed dial. the 9,000 schools don't. And paying doesn't always save you. PowerSchool already found that out. Going after kids data is low.
